Central Intelligence Agency director William Burns shed light on the rise of China during an interview on Thursday. Burns said Washington needs to acknowledge the fact that it is no longer the "only big kid" on the geopolitical block. "I am exploring right now, to forward-deploy China specialists - whether it is operations officers, analysts, technologists as well - to make us more effective in that competition," Burns said.
